Sometimes you think you've gone dark but there's still a little spark inside. Me on loss and grief and love and the return of the light after winter solstice, externally and internally, for The Last Word on Nothing:

Hi friends! In an Anishinaabe story, popularized in Robin Wall Kimmerer's book Braiding Sweetgrass, a muskrat dove to the bottom of a great flood and retrieved mud that would eventually make the land of the world. And muskrats do build worlds, shaping wetlands in ways that support countless plants, birds, insects, fish, amphibians, and reptiles. I did this painting as the banner image for a feature story by Brandon Keim in Hakai Magazine, about muskrats, all they do, and the mystery of their decline across North America. You can find prints for sale here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1705788450/muskrat-builds-the-world
And you can read Brandon's story here: https://hakaimagazine.com/features/the-magnificent-lives-and-quiet-loss-of-muskrats/

Leading students through a writing workshop about the West got me pondering doom. Many of them seemed to feel the world was broken beyond repair. I think both they and I need more stories that remind us just how dynamic and resilient our home is. So I wrote and drew this little comics essay for ‘s pleasure issue. Look for my combined art and writing in upcoming issues, too! It’s gonna be a whole thing!
